    In the grand scheme of things, this is minor but it's important to understand that there is a difference between knowing a foreign language & being able to memories words and phrases (however accurately) in a foreign language).https://twitter.com/SteveGuest/status/1228157996074782721 …

        Don't worry I'm sure his Norwegian is much better.

        "este noche" is the phrase he was seeking. this evening. I took Spanish in 7th grade, 50 years ago, and even I know that.

        Agreed, minor. It's not like he's praising Castro or honeymooning shirtless in Moscow, or voting against the Brady bill.

        In his defense, I heard him say, in an interview, that he wasn’t fluent in most of the languages. Other people used this “ speaks seven languages” thing to boost him.

        No, his people had that sent out, they confirmed he spoke 7 languages to a journalist as well. All lies.
